Some Changes for the Venturers in Argent game:

CORRECTION: the last sentence in the "On the Site Map" section of the rules (pg. 10) should be changed to: 

If the Shadowlord is overcome, there will be no more random encounters in corridors or at the entrance or trail (chambers not yet visited are unaffected).

[The former version implied there would also be no further random encounters in chambers not yet visited.]

Clarification: the second paragraph of rules under the "Reductions & Fleeing" section (pg. 7) should have the following sentence added:

A venturer with a wound who takes a second, non-wound reduction goes out as normal, and still has one wound.

[This merely clarifies the existing rules.]

Addition: the World Map location "The Turok" (H3) should have the local race "Hil" (Hillfolk).

All these changes have already been made to the downloadable files for the game.

A few typos have been discovered on the Venturers in Argent game map.  These are at the Elven cities of Paros Caradel and Imralis (in F2) and the Greenwood (G6), which should all be type "C" terrain, rather than type "F".  You can make the corrections by simply writing in a "C" over the "F" at these locations, or download a corrected version of the game (it has already been changed).
